    The EUR/GBP retreated to the 0.8555 area during Tuesday’s session, erasing most of Monday’s gains +.. Moreover, the Sterling traded strong against the USD, JPY ,CHF, AUD and NZD as hot labour-market data from the UK fueled hawkish bets on the Bank of England (BoE) and a rise in British yields.

    The UK Office for National Statistics reported a decrease in jobless benefit claims by 9.6K in May, down from the previous figure of 46.7K . The Unemployment Rate slightly dropped to 3.8% instead of the expected 4% in the three months leading up to April. Average earnings, including and excluding bonuses, which serve as a gauge of wage inflation to the BoE, also rose during this period. That being said, British yields increased across the board with the 2-year rate leading the way, seeing a 5% rise to 4.88%, its highest level since 2008.

    Ahead of the June 22 meeting, a 25 basis point (bps) hike is already priced in. Likewise, investors are also discounting hikes for the August, September, and November meeting, and hence a policy rate peaking at 5.5%. However, the short-term trajectory of the Sterling will be determined by the updated macro forecast of the BoE, and investors will pay attention to any clues in the monetary report or the Governor Bailey press conference regarding forward guidance.

    On the other hand, Euro price dynamics will also be determined by the European Central Bank (ECB) decision on Thursday and the macroeconomic forecast of its members. As for now, investors fully priced in a 25 bps hike announcement.

Despite Monday’s impressive gains, indicators still remain deep in negative territory while the pair trades well below the 20-,100- and 200-day Simple Moving Averages (SMAs), near August 2022 lows of 0.8535.
